I've got a 2007 Freelander XS. I've been told that there is an aftermarket kit to enable the Garmin Nuvi to be fitted to the dash where the LR built in GPS would normally sit. Anyone heard of such a kit?

Thanks for the reply, I've tried squeezing the fob as I press the lock/unlock button and, so far, it's worked every time!! Thanks for your help.

I've got a 2007 Freelander 2. The doors won't always lock using the key fob. Sometimes if the vehicle is unlocked and I press the "unlock" button I can hear a click and if I then press the "lock" button it'll lock OK. It's now getting to the stage when I'm having trouble getting the car to lock...

I'm based in leek staffs. Thanks for the advice

Just bought a set of headlamp guards for a 2007 Freelander 2. Genuine LR part no LR002408. The instructions are "visual" as opposed to verbal and most of it is easy to follow. However I don't get instruction no.1. It's an "eye" next to which is a number 45 on top of a number 30. The drawing is...

I have a 2007 Freelander 2 diesel. It pulls well normally, excellent mpg, no smokey exhaust and I'm generally very happy. However, I've noticed that if I'm in 4th and the revs creep up to just under 3000 I lose all further power no matter how far down I press the accelerator pedal. It doesn't...

Thanks for all your help. It's a diesel by the way. Never seen a message saying "pre heat" or anything like it but perhaps I'm a bit quick starting it. It's a push "key" in, depress clutch and push start button. Should I push "key" in and wait a few seconds before pushing the start button?

I have a 2007 Freelander 2 that struggles to start on these very cold mornings. There's no glow plug light so I assume there are no glow plugs - or am i missing something. It's perfectly Ok in the warmer weather (1 degree C) but not in very cold weather. Any ideas?

Many thanks for that.

Just got a Freelander 2 56 plate with Bluetooth enabled phone. It won't let me copy my phonebook to it but is there any way phone numbers can be input individually?

Many thanks for all your advice. It was my intention to get the tyres checked because of the wear on the outside of the front tyres. Hopefully that'll be the problem. They're a little worn anyway so two new ones might cure the problem.

I've got a 2007 Freelander. The parking sensors were working fine yesterday (sunny) but won't today (pouring down). I've read on forums that rain sometime affects them and to spray them with solicone spray. Would WD40 do the trick? Does anyone have a link to "How to Replace Rear Parking Sensors"...

I've just bought a Freelander 2 2007 with 73000 on it. Overall very pleased with it. However, above 50mph it develops a sort of droning noise. Disappears completely below 50. It's fitted with Marauder 2 Maxxis tyres which have worn on the outside of the front tyres. Has anyone any experience of...

I'm thinking of buying a Freelander 2 2.2 SE 2007/08. I've seen so many conflicting figures on bhp, mpg and CO2 emissions. Has anyone got a definitive answer? Many thanks
